Deep Crates' is the kind of film that has been overdue for so long. A seventy minute documentary on the history of crate digging for samples and beats from the late seventies to now. Interviewed artists include Diamond D, Madlib, Lord Finesse, Maseo, Peanut Butter Wolf and Egon, Buckwild and the Soulman amongst many more. Inspiring stories about how the scene started - basically the foundation blocks of the old school rap movement. The unbridled joy at finding that rare gem and the twisted politics that went along with with the oneupmanship. The stories flow deep and hard like an extended Wax Poetic feature on film - no less. Hear how these producers got heat - the rivalries, the respect and the love - crackly vinyl obsession, a trait that many a male are infected with. This film is the hip hop joint to see - hilarious, insightful, wise and inspiring.
Following the movie, we will preview the trailer for Rest in Beats, and host a panel discussion by DC hip-hop producers:

Our solitary driving lust for the past year has been to make you move. To push you closer to a
nearly emotional experience. Closer to that moment when the Ciroc and the music meet and for a
second you feel it. You’re in the disco. We love that sensation. For nearly a complete lap around
the sun, we’ve chased it together... let's chase it one more time. Forget the celebrities. Forget all
the press. Let's get dressed up on a Thursday night, eat some cake, and chase that feeling. Grammy
Award Winning Super Producer, Just Blaze will assist. Pandora has changed the way people look
at luxury evening entertainment. Imitators, naysayers, and true believers have all witnessed Pandora
come into her own. In 2009 we embrace a future based largely on the truth that you should
always be there, you should always be beautiful, and you deserve to be seen.
